Exceptions are often a better way to handle errors than returning them as values. We argue that traditional exceptions provide better user and developer experience, and show that they even result in faster execution.

    I find it quite difficult to properly define the differences between the two.

    The handling is enforced by one while the other may be unknown to the person who calls the function. I think that’s a pretty clear difference.

      But that’s what I mentioned regarding Java there. Java calls them “exceptions”, but generally forces the caller to either handle them or explicitly bubble them upwards…
